Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, this museum chronicles the history of the company's origins from the beginning to the present. The business began in 1795 and celebrated its 200th anniversary in 1995. A family history room displays rare family photos and heirloom memorabilia. Visitors can learn about the process, including mashing, distilling, barreling, and storing and the restored tasting parlor is included in the tour. There's also a VIP behind-the scenes tour for private experience with a master fistiller and a gift shop to sample their world-famous bourbon candy. The museum is located 30 minutes from Louisville (in Clermont).
